git

Github user magicmonty came up with a nice useful ​ bash git prompt. For people using Linux Mint (like me) and looking to keep the prompt as similar to the default one as possible (like me), you will want to add this to your .bashrc:

GIT_PROMPT_START="_LAST_COMMAND_INDICATOR_ ${debian_chroot:+($debian_chroot)}\[\033[01;32m\]\u@\h\[\033[01;34m\] \w\[\033[00m\]"
GIT_PROMPT_END=" $ "
source ~/.bash-git-prompt/gitprompt.sh

The same as above, just mimicking the Cygwin default prompt:

GIT_PROMPT_START="\n_LAST_COMMAND_INDICATOR_ \[\e]0;\w\a\]\[\e[32m\]\u@\h \[\e[33m\]\w\[\e[0m\]"
GIT_PROMPT_END=" \n$ "
source ~/.bash-git-prompt/gitprompt.sh

• “Bare”: Repository without workspace to go with it
• Clone: git clone <repo-url>
• Remotes: Alias for external repo URL
• Remote-Tracking-Branches: Read-only copies of branches from the remote repo, with the alias as prefix: origin/master
• Create local “tracking” branch: git branch <branchname> <remote-branch>; git checkout <branchname>
• Get all changesets from remote and update remote tracking branches: git fetch
• Put all local changes / commits into the remote repo: git push (only if fast-forward possible in remote)
• Fetch and merge: git pull
• Create new remote branch: git branch new-local-branch; git checkout new-local-branch; git push –set-upstream origin local-branch
• Delete remote branch: git push –delete origin <branchname>
